Dallas Fort Worth Airport is the world's largest single-airline hub. Terminal E has the largest concourse trek in the US and has no direct walkways between terminals. American Airlines has exclusive use of Terminals A, B, and C.

Only last month Dallas Fort Worth International Airport (DFW) became the world’s largest airline hub for single-airline departures. Walking from Terminal E to Terminal B or vice versa necessitates a walk of 2.16 miles or 3.46 kilometers, making the airport home to the largest concourse trek in the US.

In addition to being the main base for American Airlines, DFW is also a hub for commuter airlines like Southern Airways Express and cargo airlines like UPS Airlines and Ameriflight LLC. This airport opened half a century ago and is also an operating base for a few other airlines. In this article, we will dive into which airlines use which terminal in DFW.
